Books

Because of the high cost of books, we only have students purchase textbooks when they are essential. Sometimes the book will be available for the student to buy at the first class (as noted in the course description). Otherwise, students should bring the book with them to the first class.

Textbooks can be purchased at the Asheville and Enka Campuses. Hours for the Asheville and Enka locations are 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday and on Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Books are available at the Madison Campus for classes scheduled at that campus only. Hours for the Madison Campus are 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday and on Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
